Tottenham Hotspur look like adding £16.1million to their bank balance.

According to a recent report from German newspaper Bild, Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Nabil Bentaleb will trigger a permanent £16.1million move if he plays for loan club Schalke this weekend, so assuming that goes ahead as expected, how could Spurs spend the cash?

Here we take a look at three players Tottenham could look to bring to White Hart Lane with their seemingly imminent windfall:

Kylian Mbappe

Tottenham need additional fire power and AS Monaco forward Kylian Mbappe is one of the most exciting young goal-scorers in Europe.

Given that his current contract expires in 2019, he may be available for a cut-price fee if Tottenham act quickly.

Ryan Sessegnon

Fulham left-back Ryan Sessegnon is the perfect player for Tottenham; someone who could act as back-up to Danny Rose if Ben Davies leaves the club this season and one who has the potential to grow into one of the best left-sided players in the country.

It would take far less than £16.1million to clinch a deal, leaving Tottenham with a fair amount of change to continue their recruitment drive.

Yevhen Konoplyanka

Tottenham need wingers and Yevhen Konoplyanka could be the answer.

The 27-year-old is clearly out of favour at Sevilla and has hardly pulled up any trees at loan club Schalke, but he is a fine footballer and could add something different to Tottenham’s attack.
